CCS/MSP432E401Y: CCS/MSP432E401Y

Part Number: MSP432E401Y
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3200, CC3120, , MSP-EXP432E401Y

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I already had CCSv7 installed.  I was using it for CC3200 and CC3220 products like CC3200MODLAUNCHXL and CC3220MODASF.

But then I got the product bundle "SIMPLELINK-ETHERNET-WIFI" (SimpleLink™ MSP432E4 Ethernet LaunchPad™ Kit + CC3120 Wi-Fi BoosterPack™

Module Bundle).  I installed the SDK for MSP432E401Y.  

Then I wanted to try the example project "gpiointerrupt_MSP432E401Y_freertos" on this board.

In order to do so, I uninstalled CCS first.

Then installed it again and took care to include the MSP432 related processor support also, in addition to the CC32xx.

Then I launched CCS, and did a "check updates" under the "Help" tab.

The following error was encountered:

An error occurred while installing the items
session context was:(profile=epp.package.cpp, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Install, operand=null --> [R]com.ti.cgt.c6000.8.1.win32_root 8.1.6, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.natives.actions.ChmodAction).
The action chmod failed - file c:\ti\ccsv7\eclipse\downloads\ccs_update_5.5.0.00092.exe does not exist

Then I referred to an earlier similar query

"https://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/636710"

If I clear the cache as per the solution given in the above E2E query link, another problem arises.

The problem is that the import of MSP432E401Y project "gpiointerrupt_MSP_EXP432E401Y_freertos_ccs" fails.  The error is:

Issues that may require your attention were encountered while importing the project(s).

Reason:

See details below.
Error: Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support.
Error: Device is either 'null' or is currently not recognized by CCS. See 'Help > Check for Updates' or visit CCS App Center to get the latest device support.

I have tried multiple times, but to no avail.

Please suggest a way to be able to use CCS for projects on MSP-EXP432E401Y.  Also the CCS should remain usable for the CC32xx based projects.

    The E401 is a fairly new device and sounds like your version of CCSv7 does not support it. I would recommend updating your CCS version. CCSv8.0 is the current latest. Please make sure you install CCSV8.0 in a clean empty directory.

    Thanks
